The Four Cs

Diamond Rarity

Diamond

At Helzberg Diamonds, we pride ourselves on having extremely strict standards for diamond quality - especially when it comes to the cut of our diamonds. We stand behind every diamond that goes into every piece of our jewelry, ensuring that it lives up to the standards we have upheld since 1915.

The basics of diamonds has always come down to the 4Cs - cut, color, clarity and carat weight.

Cut: The cut of a diamond affects how well a diamond returns light back to the viewer's eye. A well cut diamond will appear brilliant and fiery.

Color: A diamond's color is a measure of the stone's whiteness, meaning it is actually measuring the lack of color a diamond has.

Clarity: The clarity of a diamond refers to the presence (or lack) of imperfections. Generally, the more imperfections (or inclusions) a diamond has, the lower the clarity.

Carat Weight: A carat specifically measures a diamond's weight. Because of its rarity, one larger diamond is more valuable than a combination of smaller diamonds.

This ring is beautiful on and off my hand. The sparkle is amazing, and so shiny. I couldn't be happier with this beautiful ring. The wedding band we picked out makes the whole set perfect!

I have had this ring for three months now. I fell in love with this ring the moment I saw it and knew it was the engagement ring for me. I love it more everyday. It has a very high setting, and thought it might give me problems getting caught on things. It hasn't happened yet, and I am very active. This ring is very elegant and has a vintage look to it. The sparkle is simply amazing. I find myself staring at it all the time, and the compliments are constant. Without a doubt, this will be my ring for life, along with the loving man who gave it to me.

You must see this ring in person! It is so gorgeous. All of the beading with the 84 diamonds surrounding the 3 Emerald Cut diamonds mounted above. This is truly a "WOW" ring! I can't say enough about how much I LOVE LOVE LOVE this ring. My first experience with Helzberg and they have been amazing plus they guarantee their product and your happiness. I received this for my 30 year anniversary and I couldn't be happier. You'll pay double somewhere else for something this beautiful. If you love the Emerald Cut you won't be disappointed!
